Description: First published in 1969, "Black Theology & Black Power" provided the first systematic presentation of black theology. Relating the militant struggle for liberation with the gospel message of salvation, James Cone laid the foundation for an original interpretation of Christianity that retains its urgency and challenge today.

Details: In advance, sorry fo he typos my keyboard is messed up. This is not for those who read for fun. Cone states in 10 pages what most could in haf a page He uses te extra space to ramble and rant. He contiuley repeats himself over and over , like a broken record player. For learning purposes, I recomend going to a libray and photo copying the valuable sections of the book. If your a teacher lookng to make sheets from this book, hen geta diffrnt book.Speaking as a pupil, students would rather not plough through this long winded babble
Review Summary: excellent
